Abstract
As a Catholic healthcare organization, Covenant Health and the Covenant family of institutions in Alberta does not provide Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD). However, given its significant palliative and hospice bed base, it responds on average once per week to persons in their care requesting MAiD, requiring Covenant to balance the rights of individuals exploring this legally available option without compromising on its institutional identity and ethical integrity. The article details Covenant's advocacy role with government and public messaging, demonstrating how balancing the rights of all is not only necessary, but possible. The article provides recommendations for both provider and non-provider sites alike to ensure appropriate safeguards, quality control, and longitudinal study, given the unprecedented impact MAiD has had on the national landscape, underscoring there are lessons learned for all to benefit.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
